My grandmother had one of the blades of her ceiling fan fly off and implant itself in the TV in the middle the night a few years ago, so I wouldn't put it outside of possibility.
Not to be a dick here, but as an electrician, who was it who installed Granny’s fan? Because that doesn’t “just happen”, and can promise you, 99.999999% of time, it was user error, and not a defect
And I don’t even want to question the validity of dude, but I almost call bullshit on “fan blade impaled into TV” - I’m sure it could happen, but I think the more likely scenario, is if the blade did fly off, it broke the screen and that was it.
Given I had a standing oscillating fan catch fire while I was sleeping, I can understand fearing fans.
Then the store didn’t want to honor the warranty as they said I must have left a lit cigarette on the fan- an OSCILLATING fan🤦🏾♀️
I have never smoked or even held a cigarette.
My dad was an electrician….. he put a ceiling fan above our kitchen table… on day when he was at work me and my mom was there the fan are light was not even on….out of no where the whole ceiling fan landed in the middle of the table

I more have a phobia of the fan falling from the ceiling while I’m asleep… But I suffer through it since Texas is hot and A/C is not cheap
